“Wren was great with Gander. We had an appliance malfunction while she was staying and she was patient with us/our maintenance. Wren is good at communicating and I feel confident Gander is left in good hands.”
“Caleb was great! He took care of our animals as if they were his own while we were out of town for a few days and they were happy and healthy as could be when we made it home. 10/10 Recommend”
“Payton is a responsible, professional and dedicated professional. She had consistently taken great care of our dogs, and our home. When she stays with our dogs, I don’t worry about anything. I can’t say enough about how wonderful she is!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages and care needs. I’ve helped family, friends, neighbors and private clients with walks, drop-ins, sitting and bathing. From caring for litters of 11 puppies to managing up to 8 dogs at a time in the home, I am well equipped to help you care for your pups. My experience working in a veterinary setting has set me up to help manage medication administration and postoperative care. I care for pets full time. I have openings for walks and drop-ins early mornings, late afternoons and evenings Monday-Saturday. My availability for sitting is pretty open at the moment. I care for your pets according to your pet’s regular schedule and individual needs. I’m very patient and like to go at your pet’s pace. I’m always honored when I have the opportunity to help folks care for their beloved animals and treat both their home environment and their care needs the same way I do with my own - with kindness, consideration, integrity and respect.
“Carmella house sat for 6 days while we were out of town for the holidays and did a great job! She spent a lot of time with the pups and took care of the house as well.”
“Anastasia was a dream dog sitter! She went above and beyond to make sure our young puppy was well cared for. She stayed in consistent communication and we were at ease knowing Mochi was in great hands. She left the house extremely clean. She even stayed longer than planned due to a big winter storm that pushed our flights back. We could not recommend Anastasia enough.”
“Jorden was super great and communicative and most importantly had great patience with such a young puppy. Highly recommend and will contact her again for any dog/house sitting needs in the future.”
About: I have never boarded my own dog because he is the most spoiled dog in the world and he loves the comfort of his own home! I believe all fur babies should have the same comfort! I also have walked my dog every day for the past 10 years! Puppies need daily exercise and play! I enjoy walking and being outside. I currently do not work and my kiddos are now in school full time! I love dogs and cats, as well as helping others, so I figured this was a great fit! I can be available after the kids go to school, until the time they come home. I would prefer drop in visits and dog walking. I don’t plan to care for dogs in my own home, but I will care for your pets as if they were my own. Also, I would follow any instructions you give.
“Stephanie is AMAZING! Super professional and our pets love her so much. She regularly provides updates with pictures and the house is always in such good shape when we come back. Highly reccomend”
“My goodness! Not enough good things to say. I believe my boy Zen was happier when I came home than even before I left! Greats has a way with dogs and showed our boy so much love. Thankful for this wonderful soul!”
“Tabbatha watched our two dogs for two weeks in our home and she was truly amazing! It was clear that she really cared about our dogs and she went above and beyond for them, including sending lots of pictures of how they were doing! She was also flexible enough to stay an extra night when we had unexpected travel issues. Overall, we highly recommend Tabbatha!”
“Jacquelyn did a great job watching our animals and house. She gave us plenty of updates and photos that gave us piece of mind throughout our trip. A concern did arise while we were gone and she contacted us right away and everything turned out just fine. Would definitely hire her again!”
“Amber was lovely! Sat for the day in my home on a last minute request, checked in frequently with updates and pictures, and followed all care instructions ❤️ Thank you for the great care!”
About: Hi my name is Hunter, and I’m here to watch your precious pets :) I have grown up with animals my whole life, I have a dog of my own, and when I was 18 I worked at a doggy daycare. I plan on getting my dog training certificate and becoming a certified dog trainer! I currently have no job, and will be free to watch your pets any time, and don’t plan on working another full time job for a while, so I should be free whenever :) I can take your pet on walks, of course feed them, you may catch me and them becoming best friends, and I’ll make sure your pets have the best time of their life!
“Willow is so sweet and loving to my baby Afi! She loves animals so much. Super easy to work with & communicative. I give her a shared note on my phone with directions and she follows them thoroughly. I’ll be booking Willow again!”
About: Hi, I'm Kimberly! My husband and I recently relocated to Bee Cave from Philadelphia, and I'm excited to meet some new four-legged friends in the area. Dogs have been an important part of my life for most of my adult life. I currently have two of my own, London, a Boston Terrier, and Soco, an American Eskimo. Before London, we had a Shepherd mix who was rescued from the streets of the Cayman Islands and was part of our family for 13 wonderful years. I have also spent time caring for and interacting with my husband's Doberman, so I'm comfortable around dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. London has a special story of her own. We brought her home in May 2025 after she spent her life on a farm as a breeder. Walks, toys, and being a family dog were all completely new to her. Helping her learn to enjoy those everyday experiences taught me how important patience, consistency, and understanding each dog's individual personality can be. Over the years, I have also regularly helped friends and neighbors with their dogs, including walking neighborhood dogs and pet sitting while owners were away. While these started as favors for people I knew, they gave me valuable experience caring for dogs other than my own and understanding the importance of following each owner's routine and instructions. Through Rover, I offer dog walking, drop-in visits, and overnight house sitting. I have full availability and can provide daytime walks and visits as well as overnight care. Walks can include exercise, exploring the neighborhood, plenty of time for sniffing, and enjoying the outdoors at your dog's own pace. Drop-in visits can include potty breaks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and companionship. For overnight stays, my goal is to keep your dog comfortable and maintain their normal routine while you're away. I understand that every dog is different. Some are ready to run and play the moment you arrive, while others need a little time to warm up. My experience with London has taught me to be patient, attentive, and responsive to what each dog needs. Communication is very important to me. As a dog owner, I know how reassuring it is to receive photos and updates when you're away from your pets. I will provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing how your dog is doing while they're in my care. Most importantly, I want your dog to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. My goal is to treat every dog like one of my own and provide dependable, loving care that gives you peace of mind while you're away. My schedule is open to accommodate your needs on a daily basis. I know how life happens so I am flexible to meet the needs of my clients. I live in a very dog friendly community that is fenced in entirely. There is a dog park on site as well we well as the Bee Cave dog park within a short walk.
About: I grew up with several dogs and cats in the family home. I have raised and trained a Doberman, so I know what it takes to teach them obedience and the importance of consistency. I love animals so much, they bring me so much joy. Fun fact: when I was a little girl I wanted to be a veterinarian. I feel that I have a special connection with animals; they are usually naturally drawn to me. I didn’t pursue a career as a veterinarian because I had other interests. I currently don’t have any animals because I enjoy the flexibility. I would love to take care of your animals and treat them with extra special care. I am currently working part time and would have the time to care for your pet(s) after work or on my days off. I currently work a 2-3 days a week and am available by the afternoons on the days I am working. I typically pet sit in the owners home. I find that is more comfortable for them. I am not currently able to have pets where I live.
“I cannot express our gratitude for how Carla looked after our two pups. Yeah, they're a little spoiled, and prefer a little extra love and attention, and Carla was here for it. It's always been such a challenge for my wife and I to travel together, but Carla made it possible, and we had the best time ever...made easier by seeing our dogs so happy while away. We joked they were bummed we came back. We also joked that now we have to plan our vacations around Carla's availability. LOL. THANK YOU CARLA!!!!”
“Brooke was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home for a little over two weeks while caring for our 23-year-old cat, Chloe, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Coming home to such a happy, relaxed kitty was the greatest gift. It was obvious Chloe was loved, well cared for, and never felt neglected while we were away. Brooke also took exceptional care of our home—it was absolutely immaculate when we returned. She sent thoughtful daily updates with photos, which gave us so much peace of mind and allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation knowing everything was in great hands. Brooke is trustworthy, kind, communicative, and clearly has a genuine love for animals. We would hire her again without hesitation and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable house and pet sitter!”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - The Hills
We highly recommend Payton. This was our first time and there are quite a few things to share. First and foremost, she accommodated our request for a 4-night stay literally last minute. Payton was very transparent with a certain window that doesn't work for her, and we really appreciate that. She was able to spend a lot of times with our pet Bones, gave him a lot of good attention, took him out for walks, gave him timely meds and spoilt him with timely treats 😆. Payton also watered our plants (indoors and outdoors), and gave Bones a bath. I want to highlight that Payton was very responsive throughout, shared updates proactively and also washed the bed sheets before she left. We were very anxious about our last minute situation, and thanks to Payton - we were fully relaxed during our trip. We're definitely going back to Payton next time as our first option!
Wren was an amazing sitter for Juno! She took the time to understand Juno’s needs and followed all of my instructions perfectly. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Juno was able to stay comfortable at home and was receiving great care. Wren also kept me updated with photos throughout my trip, which I really appreciated! She left my apartment clean and organized, everything was in great condition. I would absolutely recommend Wren to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter, and I look forward to booking with her again!
Paige was outstanding. Highly recommend her. This was our first time leaving the pups with someone other than a family member and doing so at our own home but Paige was professional and made the entire process smooth and seamless. She exceeded our expectations by her accessibility and communication while we were away (sending cute pics daily and putting our minds at ease), and went above and beyond to tidy up the house before she left, which was unnecessary but so appreciated. Thank you so much, Paige.
We had a fantastic experience with Chris as our pet sitter! From the very beginning, she was professional, responsive, and incredibly easy to work with. Her communication was excellent — she kept us updated and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. Our flight was delayed coming home, and Chris was so flexible and accommodating, which we truly appreciated. It made a stressful travel day so much easier knowing our pets were in such good hands. We came home to happy, healthy pets and everything in great shape. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the animals she looks after. We will absolutely be hiring Chris again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter!
I have never seen my crazy dog so calm around a person. She clued in quickly that Thomas had treats. We were very nervous leaving our house full of pets for a week, but all was well when we returned. He sent us lots of texts with photos and the house was very clean when we returned. Definitely recommended!!
Aaliyah exceeded all expectations. She followed every instruction carefully, went above and beyond in caring for my dog, and provided consistent communication throughout her stay. I felt completely confident knowing my pets were in her attentive and capable hands. Highly recommend her services.
Rebecca was great. Despite having very short notice, she replied and arranged a meet and greet that occurred within a few hours of me contacting her. She was very communicative and asked a lot of questions and took detailed notes on what my pups needed for their routines. She stayed over at my house for 2 nights while I was out of town, sending pictures and videos frequently and showering my pups with attention. I would highly recommend you consider Rebecca for your pet sitting needs!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in The Hills on Rover is $45.08 per night (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 4,676 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across The Hills. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred The Hills walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in The Hills maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in The Hills choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in The Hills. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
